    7:20 just perfectly shows what a great manager/boss Chris is. Makes him realise what he did wrong without making it personal, and made it clear what he needs to do, without micromanaging. He also didn't undermine Ron by saying anything at the BBQ. Then the instant feedback on a job well done with gratuitous smile. He's such a well written character!

      That's why Ron radiates zen mindfulness. He's right--you shouldn't try hard at all. That's one of the secrets of great meditation. It's when you try to make it into a chore or exercise that MUST BE DONE that meditation then, paradoxically, doesn't come to you. It's very similar to sleep. The Chinese actually prize this state of mind of "not trying so hard." It's called "wu wei." So it's great the Ron stumbled upon that truth about life without reading any of the Buddhist or Daoist scriptures or any self-help book.

      I could definitely understand how it might be viewed as deception, given Ron had no idea how he got there and seemed like he was tricked, but I think persuasion would be more accurate. I don't think that it was implied that Chris lied about what he was doing or was being underhanded at any point. I do think however it was heavily implied that he was just so convincing in his charisma that he got Ron to come with him of his own accord. Ergo, Ron was persuaded not deceived.

It's just a possiblity. But red meat in general has a higher chance of leading to a heart attack than white, lean meat. Ofc we should all remember that "dosis facit veneum" so a fatty burger from time to time doesn't change much. But eating red and/or processed meat every day raises the chance of type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease and others.

I show encouragement and enthusiasm when it comes to employee morale, but I’m also very real about every situation and hate when I have to actually put my best foot forward. And it works for me. My employees love me and relate well to me, and customers either love me because I do my job right and help them, or they hate because they don’t like being told that they’re wrong.
